I was recently given a 1994 ZR700 in pretty nice condition. Sled has sat for around 3 years. I went thru the fuel system...Got rid of the old gas, thoroughly cleaned and went thru the carbs, new plugs, checked all the fuel lines and connections but cannot get the right cylinder to light off. I've got good spark to both sides and compression on both sides is 155 to 160. Looking in the exhaust and intake ports both pistons look good from top to bottom with no obvious sign of scarring. Thought maybe I might have a reed problem both there doesn't appear to be any reeds.
The left side will run by itself but the right won't do anything. Even installed another exact same carb and still no ignition. Have switched plugs from side to side, carbs also. Float bowl fills with fuel but does not seem to be getting to the cylinder. Coolant system is good and there is no coolant eveidence in the cylinder.
I can normally solve most problems with these older sleds but this one is stumping me.
Could I have a bad crank seal that is sucking air?
Thanks for any help.
